Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi All

There is a thread operating on the Lived Experience Forum under Night Shift where members who are having trouble sleeping for any reason give a bit of a shout-out, to see if there is anyone else sleepless and looking for company. It's been such a great thing, I thought I would start one over here too.

I have had the odd few nights where I have woken up on and off, and my kids have been having a bit of trouble some nights too, depending on what has happened during the day.

Being a carer can be lonely too, so if you are making an after-midnight cup of something hot, and wonder who else might be doing that too, maybe have a look-in here and see if anyone else is about.

Will be lovely to get the woodstove up and running @Smc. I am really grateful that we have a split system air con as I don't think I could have managed the wood heater on my own when emotionally stretched, but the wood heater seems to give off a different quality heat that is much nicer and we have used it more this year than we did last winter - don't quite know how to articulate what I mean by 'nicer heat'.

Hello @Kitten @Faith-and-Hope

I fully understand what you mean by nicer heat @Former-Member, Im not a fan of electric heaters as they dry out the air more but I do like wood fired heaters.

Have been contemplating recently getting a new kero heater. Found somewhere that sells them, not in town is all so have to wait till the next time I am down that way .

Fancy a warming winter dessert @Determined? Works a lot better than some heaters.
